Soft side cooler with utility board

A soft side cooler, comprising:

• a body surrounded by an outer casing and an inner liner defining an insulating cavity, including side walls having an opposing front panel and back panel in perpendicular alignment with an opposing first side panel and second side panel such that aligned lower edges are joined to a planar bottom to thereby configure a substantially box-shaped enclosure
• a lid configured for aligned correspondence with an upper linear edge of the sidewalls wherein the casing on the rear panel of the body extends upwardly to integrally surround the lid and wherein the lid has a lip corresponding to an upper linear edge of the sidewalls;
• a zipper for detachably fastening the body and lid of the cooler, wherein the zipper has opposing ends attached on either side of the tab and wherein the zipper has a first strip and a second strip with interlocking teeth, wherein the first strip is attached proximate to a linear top edge of the body and the second strip is affixed proximate to a bottom linear edge of the lid whereby engaging the interlocking teeth fastens the zipper to close the cooler and whereby disengaging the interlocking teeth opens the zipper to release the lid to an open position;
• and
• a sleeve affixed upon a surface of the lid, wherein the sleeve is configured for tensioned retaining of a removeable utility board, wherein the utility board has a rigid and substantially flat construct sized and shaped such that the sleeve exerts sufficient tensile stress for retaining the utility board within the sleeve.

A soft side cooler, comprising:

• a body defined by an outer casing and an inner lining, wherein the casing and inner lining are composed of a pliable, insulating material and enclose an insulating cavity, and wherein the body includes sidewalls having a front panel and a rear panel in perpendicular alignment with a first side panel and an opposing second side panel such that aligned lower linear edges are continuously affixed to outer edges of the planar bottom to thereby configure a substantially box-shaped enclosure;
• a lid configured for aligned correspondence with an upper linear edge of the sidewalls, wherein a tab connects a section of the rear panel of the body to a corresponding section of the lid and wherein the lid has a lip corresponding to an upper linear edge of the sidewalls;
• a zipper for detachably fastening the body and lid of the cooler, wherein the zipper has opposing ends attached on either side of the tab and wherein the zipper has a first strip and a second strip with interlocking teeth, wherein the first strip is attached proximate to a linear top edge of the body and the second strip is affixed proximate to a bottom linear edge of the lid whereby engaging the interlocking teeth fastens the zipper to close the cooler and whereby disengaging the interlocking teeth opens the zipper to release the lid to an open position and
• a sleeve affixed along a surface of the body of the cooler, wherein the sleeve is configured for tensionable retaining of a removeable utility board, wherein the utility board having a rigid and substantially flat construct sized and shaped such the insertion of the utility board is tensionably retained within the sleeve.
